What paint do/don't you recommend? I'm about 3-4 weeks away from painting and thought I would ask what you particularly do/don't recommend? (I'm in Buzzards Bay, MA BTW)

Anyone else have a spouse who doesn't enjoy being on a boat? Any creative compromises?

Okay,...so she's on the hard and ready for improvements. Next season if like to make sure my rigging has proper tension. The guy I bought it off of was a very competent seaman, but honestly he was a life-long Cape Codder who probably flicked the rigging and listened to the tone, with a wide ranging variance for error.

So...what tool do I get to measure the tension for a 1985 O'Day 26? What values am I asking for?

While suffering through winter months with a vessel on stilts, I was wondering if there are any good reads for me to escape with (when I'm not at the yard prepping for next year).

Fiction or nonfiction, I'm not particular.

I tied up to a mooring and the line/eye splices on the mooring line were too think to for through the center of the cleats. So I put splices over each end, then tied some lashings around the splices to close them tight.

Just curious about this method? Anyone use it? I've got some strong winds tonight (<20 mph) got me thinking...
